It looks like it will go down as a" possible", I am hitting a brick wall with my Ian Auld piece , not many people around that are that clued up on his early work , well none that I can find ,the V&A promised to get back within 20 days , but I doubt even they would know Ah! well plug on

Potty, I have looked at the squiggle on your piece and compared it with the more clear 'Yeap' and yours follows all the moves of the clearer ones. I will stick my neck out and say it is the same signature much more carelessly done.....I'm not the V&A though

Plus, he did make plates decorated in an oriental style AND incised his signature in grey stoneware. I'd put money on it being his.

I have never seen any of his work in grey stoneware like Potty's dish and I think that the incised signature in the batch of signatures that skay has loaded is in porcelain. All of the signatures in that batch on stoneware are painted, as have been all of the signatures on all of the pieces of stoneware by Yeap that I have seen.
